texlive-fonts-recommended @13822_1+doc : Missing map entries

Reported by: etphipp@… Owned by: dports@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.1
Keywords: texlive Cc:
Port: texlive-fonts-recommended

Description

While trying to use the palatino fonts from texlive-fonts-recommended, I discovered that the corresponding map entry (upl.map) in

/opt/local/etc/texmf/updmap.d/10texlive-fonts-recommended.cfg

is missing. This causes pdftex or dvips to fail if these fonts are used with an error along the lines of:

kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 8000 --mag 1+4800/(2*4000) --dpi 12800 uplb8r
mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for uplb8r.

Adding "Map upl.map" to this file, running "sudo /opt/local/libexec/texlive-update-cnf updmap.cfg" followed by "sudo updmap-sys" fixed the problem.

I assume this file is generated from the contents of the Portfile, and it could be fixed by adding the corresponding line there?

Looking at the contents of this port, it appears there may be many more map entries missing, although I haven't tried to use those fonts.

It does look like something is missing.

You're right that the updmap.d file is generated from the portfile. The portfile is generated from the contents of the texlive package database, so this would seem to be an upstream issue. I'd be surprised if they'd simply forgotten some Map lines, so I wonder if we're missing something here...

I just tried installing Texlive 2010 from Mac Tex on a different machine and had the same issue, so I agree that is likely an upstream issue.

Still an issue with 23165?
